Configuring Mysql to boot as a service.

Question

User-1204637165 posted

Dear All,

I recently built a local LAN app for my client. So I want a scenario were, when the admin boot the computer. Mysql would start running automatically.

So I have a tempory fix for this. but does not seem to be the best thing to do. Currently I created a bat file  that starts mysqld in the startup folder.

So any time the system boot the bat file is opened displaying a cmd box which is fully opened and mysql is started.

Is there a better way to do this were mysql would start in the background without any window opening.

Thanks alot.
